Can I get money and points for catching a snake
The two watched Feng Yi's series of operations in silence.
So, this guy can earn some pocket money by coming out to pay New Year’s greetings
Is this the legendary “If you have a skill, you will never have to worry about food and drink”
I knew from the news online that Feng Yi could catch snakes, but only when I saw it with my own eyes did I truly feel that it was really easy for him to catch snakes!
Why didn't I know Feng Yi had this talent before? !
Feng Qian recalled what Feng Yi was like in the past, but quickly came to his senses and decided that now was not the time to analyze these things!
Xiaofengshan is a remote place, almost out of Yangcheng. There are few people along the way. Feng Yi came here during the New Year, so he must be going to the same destination as them!
Ancestral temple!
Feng Qian's heart tightened and his thoughts raced.
It should be clear from the fact that Feng Yi inherited the house from his great-aunt that Feng Yi has a bad relationship with his grandfather, but he may have had a connection with his great-aunt for a long time! Knowing that he can't get any benefits from the old man, he decisively turned to his great-aunt!
I never thought that Feng Yi, who looked like a fool before, was actually a very thoughtful person!
Feng Qian's eyes flickered, and he had many questions to ask Feng Yi, but Feng Yi would not be able to answer even if he asked.
So Feng Qian continued to watch Feng Yi in silence as he went to the sink to wash and disinfect his hands.
After Feng Yi finished dealing with the king snake, he washed his hands with hand soap and disinfectant in the sink, and took out the disposable disinfectant he brought in the car. This disinfectant has a slight fragrance, can kill bacteria and disinfect, and can also cover up odors.
Doctor Xiao Wu talked about parasites. Feng Yi was very careful about disinfection and sterilization when he was outside. Even if he didn't see any parasites, there might be some tiny creatures that were invisible to the naked eye.
Microorganisms are so powerful that even aliens are afraid of them!
Disinfection is one, and deodorization is the other.
Like the Burmese python, the king cobra will secrete a very smelly liquid when it is frightened or angry.
When visiting someone's home to wish them a happy new year, Feng Yi didn't want anyone to smell the stench of a snake.
After washing his hands, Feng Yi turned his attention to the two men again.
The two sides looked at each other in silence. Feng Yi didn't have much to say, while Feng Qian and Luo Kai had too much to say but didn't know how to ask.
Feng Yi is no longer the same as he was before. His status is different now, and the old man has a weird attitude. Feng Qian and the others don’t want to offend him, nor do they need to please him.
Feng Qian was thinking about a few questions in his mind and decided to find a topic first and then test the waters step by step.
Having made up his mind, Feng Qian walked over and flicked the branches next to him, "Wind... Puff! Bah! Bah!"
Just now, when the branches were moved, many flying insects resting on the branches flew up and flew towards Feng Qian's face. He opened his mouth to speak, and one of the insects flew into his mouth.
Feng Qian's face almost turned green.
There are many flying insects on the mountain. They don’t bite or suck blood, but they are annoying. You also have to be careful of them flying into your eyes and nose. Some of them will even land on your clothes.
Feng Yi looked at the flying insects and remembered the relevant knowledge he had heard at the training base, so he said, "It's winter now, and the temperature is a bit low in the morning and evening. Some flying insects are not active because of the low temperature, so they rest on the leaves, sleeping longer every day and can't get up. But when the temperature rises, they will be very active. Now it's almost noon and the temperature is high. There will be more flying insects in the mountains later."
Feng Yi just gave a casual reminder so that they could be prepared.
However, speaking of this, Feng Yi laughed at himself: "However, some people are too lazy to get up even when the temperature is 20 or 30 degrees."
Feng Qian and Luo Kai looked at him at the same time.
Feng Yi: "I'm talking about myself."
Feng Qian almost jumped up: "Nonsense! Of course it's you!"
Feng Yi looked at them. He just thought about how he stayed in bed late this morning, but judging from their reactions, he was not the only one who stayed in bed late!
Without saying anything more, Feng Yi raised his hand and said hello, "I'm leaving first."
"Yeah." Feng Qian responded expressionlessly.
Watching Feng Yi get into the car, the two of them also got in.
Feng Qian stared at the car in front of him, "Was that guy implying something about us just now?"
Luo Kai hesitated, "No way? It doesn't look like it."
"You can't judge some people by their appearance! I've discovered before that the guy looks like a simpleton with a good face, but he's actually very sinister! We've been deceived by him for so many years!!"
“… maybe.”
Luo Kai had less contact with Feng Yi before, and most of his knowledge of Feng Yi was based on the information he had found now. It was hard to say what kind of person Feng Yi was. That series of operations was beyond his comprehension.
Who would have thought that Feng Yi was famous for catching snakes!
Who could have thought that the person who was disliked by the old man had already clung to the thigh of my aunt!
Insidious! Cunning!
Feng Qian watched Feng Yi drive away, and the route was exactly up the mountain.
"Sure enough! That guy is also going to the ancestral temple! I just don't know what his purpose is!"
"Just follow him. It's clear from the looks of it that this isn't his first time here. He's more familiar with this place than we are."
"parking!!"
Feng Qian suddenly shouted urgently, and Luo Kai stopped quickly.
The next moment, Feng Qian rushed out of the car door, waving his sleeves wildly, "A spider fell on me! Damn, there are too many bugs in this place!"
After a while of shaking and patting, Feng Qian's face looked even worse. He got back into the car. Feng Yi in front had already driven a long way away.
"We moved too hastily. There are a lot of bugs here. We should have taken precautions! We didn't even bring insect repellent! Fortunately, I was wearing long sleeves, otherwise, I don't know what would happen if I got bit. I heard that the bugs in the mountains are particularly poisonous!"
On the other side, Feng Yi drove up the mountain and looked at the car following him from a distance in the rearview mirror. It was inconvenient to type, so he directly sent a voice message to Uncle Ya, saying that someone else was following.
Uncle Ya: Don’t worry about it!
Feng Yi continued driving up the mountain.
Unlike last year, there are no snakes on the guardrails on both sides. I heard that the management method of this area has been changed, and a large number of snakes raised in the reserve have been distributed. The area is re-managed, and there are no more groups of snakes crawling on the protective nets.
There is much less snake smell in the air.
If you listen carefully, you can smell a slight smell of mouse.
No wonder some snakes "escape" from prison to eat mice.
All the houses built on the mountainside were closed, perhaps the staff had gone home to celebrate the New Year. It was very quiet all around, so quiet that it was a bit deserted.
When Feng Yi arrived at the mountain, Uncle Ya was sitting on a recliner at the door of the ancestral home, playing with his mobile phone leisurely.
There is also a sunshade above the lounge chair, and next to it are wooden side tables and trays for fruits and other food.
Uncle Ya is busy with his cell phone.
Feng Yi took a look and found that the mobile phone in Uncle Ya's hand was different from last year's. It was a new model released this year.
Uncle Ya's fingers were tapping on the screen. I don't know if he was chatting or playing games. When he heard the noise, he just quickly raised his eyelids and glanced at it, then continued to focus on the screen.
Feng Yi walked over and saw the game scene on the screen, which was in full swing.
Knowing Uncle Ya's preferences, he didn't say anything to disturb him.
However, this round was already coming to an end, and soon the victory message popped up on the screen.
Uncle Ya switched pages and stood up.
Feng Yi handed over the New Year's gift in his hand, "Uncle, Happy New Year!"
The wine prepared by the butler and the dishes made by Xiao Bing.
Uncle Ya’s eyes were almost narrowed, and he was obviously very satisfied with these things.
Feng Yi looked at the car approaching along the mountain road not far away and said, "It's my cousin."
Uncle Ya nodded indifferently.
Feng Yi asked again: "Can I go in there and take a look today? The other side of the wall?"
Uncle Ya typed on his phone, "No problem, go in."
After hearing what Uncle Ya said, Feng Yi didn't say much. The two people behind him had already come over, and it would be more troublesome if he didn't go in.
Feng Yi stepped into the house and the door was opened by Uncle Ya.
Feng Yi looked back. As the door slowly closed, Uncle Ya sat on the steps at the door, like a conscientious guard.
He didn't know what role Uncle Mute played. Uncle Mute knew the aunt and the housekeeper and knew deeper secrets, but he had been guarding here all the time.
The housekeeper only said that Uncle Mute was responsible for looking after the ancestral home, but Feng Yi felt that Uncle Mute was more like a caretaker, guarding the secrets here.
Feng Yi turned around and continued walking inside.
I wanted to go to the secret room first, but when I thought of the two people outside, I went into the ancestral temple first, burned incense, and placed offerings.
Feng Yi didn't know about this. The tribute was prepared by the housekeeper. It was not a large-scale sacrificial activity, only some fruits and cakes were prepared. However, the housekeeper also told Feng Yi that these tributes would definitely end up in Uncle Ya's stomach after completing their mission.
When Feng Yi returned from here last year, he specially checked the names on these tablets. They were indeed the ancestors of the Feng family. There was also a tablet for his great-grandfather.
But what’s amazing is that before in the Feng family, the old man had never mentioned this place to them, let alone any grand memorial activities.
As more and more information was collected, although the detailed reasons were still unknown, Feng Yi speculated that there might be some unresolved conflicts between the two generations of people, including the old man, the great-aunt, and the great-grandfather, and these conflicts were most likely related to the secrets that Feng Yi had come into contact with.
If we don't divide them by blood relationship, the Feng family can be divided into two branches. One is the obvious one that can openly face everyone in the world, such as the old man and those people from the Feng family in Yangcheng.
The other one is more hidden and cannot be known to the world, such as my grandmother and Feng Yi.
I just don't know why there are so few of this "non-human" group. Is there only one person in each generation
Little, but mysterious.
Even my great aunt’s children and blood relatives may not be able to access these secrets.
Based on Feng Yi's understanding of the old man, the old man is used to controlling everything, but it is obvious that the old man is not included in the most secretive branch of the Feng family, and the core secrets cannot be known.
Feng Yi came to another room, opened the door of an inconspicuous wall, and put his finger on something that looked like a fingerprint lock.
The door opens.
Last year, Uncle Ya brought Feng Yi here. This time, Uncle Ya didn’t come with us, but Feng Yi still came in.
It seems that his identity information has been entered here.
The interior was the same as the last time I came. After entering, the lights turned on automatically.
There are not many objects in the room, only various patterns.
There was a circle pattern of a snake biting its tail on the ground, and Feng Yi walked into it.
Nothing happened.
But last year, “Family Tree” popped up!
Could it be that once the process is completed, the “family tree” will no longer be available
Feng Yi raised his foot and stomped lightly on the ground.
Feeling the vibration coming from under his feet, Feng Yi was extremely surprised.
The underground is solid, at least over short distances.
“Old technology” is amazing!
Without the family tree, this place is just an empty secret room with a strange snake pattern. Even if someone comes in, it is difficult to find the hidden secret. No secret room will appear even if you knock and bang.
Feng Yi recalled the strange "family tree" he had seen last year.
In a sense, it is indeed a family tree.
After all, we are no longer human beings, so of course I have to write another book.
…that’s not right either!
We can’t say he is not a human being, we can only say he is not an ordinary person!
Feng Yi was more satisfied with this statement.
Well, an extraordinary one!
Thinking of the two people still outside, Feng Yi didn't stay for long. He could come back later when he had time, but now he should get out as soon as possible.
Outside the ancestral home.
When Feng Qian and his companion parked the car, they saw Feng Yi go in and the door closed.
"Is this the ancestral home? It doesn't look very majestic and imposing. How can our Feng family ancestral hall be in this small, shabby place?!" Feng Qian said, looking at the building in front of him.
The ancestral home covers a small area and has a sense of age.
Old and outdated, it feels like the floor tiles at the door don’t match the shoes on his feet!
After getting out of the car and approaching the ancestral house, Feng Qian did not see any flying insects. He thought that since someone lived there, they must have sprayed insect repellent, so there were few flying insects.
Feng Qian and Luo Kai walked over, looked at the closed door, and then looked at the old man sitting on the steps at the door.
"Old man? What's your name?"
Uncle Ya rolled his eyes, typed a text on his phone, and transcribed it to voice: "Are you here to worship your ancestors? Have you made an appointment?"
Feng Qian:
I need to make an appointment to visit my ancestral temple? ! !
Feng Qian was about to start scolding when Luo Kai patted his arm.
Before coming here, they checked the ancestral house and knew that there was an old man guarding the ancestral house. This time they came to check some things and try to reduce conflicts.
Feng Qian took a deep breath and forced a smile, "Sorry, old man, we didn't know we had to make an appointment in advance. But there aren't many people here, can we go in and pay our respects now?"
Uncle Ya typed: "Get in line!"
"Queue?! How long will it take? I have to queue to come to my own ancestral temple?!!"
Luo Kai advised, "We are not in a hurry. Feng Yi is inside, and it will be our turn when he comes out."
Feng Qian thought of something and slammed his palm, "What a bad decision! That kid got burned by me!"
Luo Kai: "... Do you still believe this?"
Feng Qian chuckled, "Don't your family believe in it too? Your mom and I ran to the temple in the middle of the night last night to get the first incense stick!"
The two continued to wait outside the door, and Feng Qian checked the time on his phone every once in a while.
"There's no need to set off firecrackers, so why did Feng Yi stay in there for so long? Is he whispering something to his ancestors?"
Luo Kai looked at him, speechless. He continued to send messages on his phone, asking someone to check the ownership of the land.
The ownership of the ancestral temple is not based on human feelings and logic, but on current policies.
He wanted to know to whom the land belonged.
No matter who it belongs to, he guessed that it is definitely not in the old man's hands.
Creak—
The door opened and Feng Yi came out.
Uncle Ya stood up and asked, "Is it done?"
Feng Yi nodded, "Yeah."
Since there were other people around, Feng Yi didn't say much. He could send a message to Uncle Ya.
Uncle Ya walked inside first, then came out and gestured to Feng Qian and the others to let them go in.
Feng Qian saw Feng Yi and wanted to say something, but he held it back. Never mind, let's take a look inside first. This dumb old man is obviously double-standard. Although the voice transferred from the phone has the same tone, he can clearly see that this old man's attitude towards Feng Yi is much better than theirs!
Enter the house and find the room where the ancestral tablets are placed.
Small! Simple!
“Not even as big as my bedroom!”
Feng Qian wanted to complain a lot, but he held it back.
Luo Kai glanced at the incense in the incense burner to see how it was burning. After Feng Yi came in, he indeed went straight here.
Feng Qian closed the door, moved aside the items that Feng Yi had placed on the altar, placed the luxurious items he had brought with him, and burned incense as offerings.
Then he bowed neatly.
"My dear ancestors! I am Xiao Qian'er, here to see you! Please bless me to have more..."
Feng Qian wanted to say that he wanted to take more inheritance, but when the words came to his lips, he changed his mind for the sake of caution and whispered:
"My dear ancestors! Please pray that the old man can leave me more things! The more the better!"
Luo Kai: “…”
